Hynion has selected PDC Machines as supplier of compressors for new H₂ filling stations Hynion will build in Västerås and Jönköping in Sweden.

The stations represent a new generation with a refueling capacity of dozens of trucks per day, necessitating powerful and robust compressors, which PDC Machines will provide. The stations will deliver H₂ at both 35 and 70 MPa for light and heavy-duty vehicles.

“We see this partnership as the start of an ambitious, long-term collaboration,” said Ulf Hafseld, CEO of Hynion. “Good dialogue, good products, and good service are important to us. The stations must deliver around the clock, and reliable compressors are indeed critical in this respect”.

The owner of PDC, Kareem Afzal, and Managing Director for the European region, Richard Kennett, both expressed their gratitude for the start of an important, longstanding collaboration with Hynion. “We are delighted to be working in partnership with Hynion and support its vision for a network of renewable and low-carbon hydrogen refueling stations in the Region of North Europe (REN). Our advanced hydrogen compression technology, coupled with Hynion’s unrivalled experience in compressed gases and dispensing, will create a reliable, robust, and cost-effective hydrogen refueling solution,” said Kareem Afzal, CEO of PDC Machines.

The delivery will consist of two powerful compressors for each station, which enable the stations to deliver continuously to trucks and cars that arrive at the stations. The stations will be in operation by Q4, 2023.
